   💡The heat should be so low the water barely moves: at a real boil the eggs crack and the whites turn rubbery.

   💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.

   Check now and then and add water as needed so the eggs are always covered.
5. 5
   Serve the eggs warm, the shells brown and the whites caramel-colored.
